Hi,

Tom's recent symbol_set_names patch exposed this Ada bug, which results 
in memory corruption while computing an alternate symbol name.

This fixes the crash I was seeing in gdb.ada/interface.exp tests.

Ok?

Keith

ChangeLog
2009-11-19  Keith Seitz  <keiths@redhat.com>

	* ada-lang.c (find_old_style_renaming_symbol): Change
	function_name to const and use strncpy to stript the
	suffix.
